bvsajjan Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 (edited) My Odyssey has 2 cigarette lighter connections. One in the cab and one in the coach. I don't smoke I use them to power my electronics... Ie. phone, ipad, gps, etc. Their great. Yesterday while in the coach the outlet went dead after I charged a Portable Power Pack by Cen-tech. It has never happened! before. I looked and could not see any of the coach fuses had tripped or blown... I use this everyday and it is so useful! Any advice what to do? I loaned my voltage meter, but there is no current to it, it seems. Ideas? please..... By the way, this Power Pack by Centech and also there is one by Chicago Electric, seems to be really great! Jump starter, Air compressor, inverter, and work lights. Edited April 17, 2015 by bvsajjan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgragert Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Maybe an inline fuse behind the outlet? Check to see if you've burned out a wire or connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Fuses can be bad and look fine. Just replace them all and go from there. Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
